I Save my Coffee thanks to the Permanent Filter!

If like me you prepare your coffee in a coffee maker with a filter, my grandma -mom and I have an easy trick to saving all year round.

Simply replace the disposable paper filters with a permanent plastic filter.

It's easy and it works!

Permanent coffee filter:savings with every coffee

I found my plastic filter in a Foir'Fouille type discount store, it cost me €1.70 , which is a little cheaper than a box of 80 disposable filters (around €2 ).

I Save my Coffee thanks to the Permanent Filter!

For a person using their coffee maker every day (approximately 5 boxes of 80 filters), the saving over the year is approximately €10 , which is certainly not huge but there are no small savings!

But I also gain in peace of mind , because it's one less thing to think about when shopping, and, in addition, I have the satisfaction of polluting less.

I wash my filter with Marseille soap, white vinegar, and from time to time a blow of bleach and rinse it well with water.
